EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning watercolor print depicts Pagrus guttulatus, also known as the Pink Snapper or Blue-spotted Seabream, a vibrant and highly prized fish species native to the waters of King Georges Sound in Western Australia and its neighboring regions. The illustration is one of 67 original watercolor drawings of mammals, reptiles, and fish, meticulously created between 1839 and 1842 by the skilled hand of Robert Neill. The intricate details of the fish's scales, gills, and fins are brought to life in this beautiful work of art, showcasing the artist's exceptional talent and dedication to capturing the natural world with precision and accuracy. The Pink Snapper is a member of the Actinopterygii class, characterized by their bony, ray-finned bodies, and the Perciformes order, which includes perch-like fish. The Pink Snapper is a popular food fish in the Indo-Pacific region, and its distinctive blue and pink coloration, along with its large, round eyes and prominent lateral line, make it a captivating subject for both scientific study and artistic expression. This watercolor print, accompanied by Robert Neill's manuscript notes, is an invaluable contribution to the zoological record of the Australian region and a testament to the beauty and diversity of its marine life.
